This is very strange I know - but I have flashed a few roms recently to find the one I liked the best and now I cant remember which one I ended up with !
Is there an easy way to see which one it is ?
duhh - sorry

You don't have "ROM version"?? It's the first value in that page
sorry - I am not being clear - my bad
what I want is to know if it is your cooked ROM package, panosha's etc
I know that I could probably find it by going through the first part of the flash procedure and stop when it tells me what is being replace ? But is there a simpler and less dangerous way
cheers
Jim (and thanks for sticking with me on this

You can try that, it's not so dangerous if you don't go over there. But for example I've not setted anything for those informations, and in this case it will show only "1.00".
did you try to do a soft-reset and check the booting screens? some of the cooks put some starting images which let you know the ROM version number/type etc.
think i've found it by checking features in the threads for each of the roms on which features, roms etc and have found which one it is by comparing back to mine
A nice feature I saw from one of the cooked roms was that it filled in the ExtRom description so that the Device settings would show that - maybe a nice way for any cook to document their rom on a PDA ?
cheers - and thanks all for the help - appreciated

Hi,
I would like to upgrade the rom on my Qtek 9100 as getting a hermes seems like a waste of time(not enough new developments) Can anyone reccommend a good rom and provide a link to it? - I cant find farias rom anywhere. I have the earliest revision of radio and os rom avail as I got my 9100 last December.
Please help as I think upgrading ROM would be much preferable to upgrading phone.
P.s do the new roms fix the screen calibration and alarm wakeup problems
Many Thanks,

It is highly unlikely that you will find Farias ROM as he has removed it from the general population. You need to read for about a week or two and after that you may be ready to upgrade your phone. I don't know if the new ROMs fix the problems you are talking about because I never had those problems to begin with.
Good Luck,

Do you have the info on what was in Farias ROM?
I don't want the ROM, but I'd like to see what he was doing. It's a shame that someone had to be an arse and ruin for other people, but then again, it's as a shame that people let people get to them over the interweb.

The best way to find out what his ROM had in it is to go to the first post in his thread and find the link that will show you his first post in the very first thread about this whole thing. He talks in detail about what the ROM contains.

You might want to take a look at what Molski has to offer. He has a fairly clean ROM that is quite stable.

Dang you are right what a bummer.
Hello there,
Great forum you guys have here.
I will be receiving my Diamond on Thursday from Orange. I have some questions and would be very grateful for your help and advice. I have looked across the site for answers but there's so much info it's difficult to know where to start!
Firstly, I understand I may need to flash the ROM to improve speed. Speed is very important to me and so should I need to do this, what ROM would you recommend - something simple, offering a good balance between memory consumption and speed please. Does the official HTC update help at all?
Secondly, what do I need to do to preserve the original ROM, just in case I need to get it back in order to return the phone.
Thirdly, can you provide me with a link that clearly explains the process of updating the ROM as i've never done anything like this before.
If there's anything else i've missed (such as settings changes - I know I should get rid of the Orange homepage in favour of HTC's for instance), please tell me - i'm eager to have my Diamond adequately set-up ASAP.
Thanks for your time & patience,
S.
well i got my diamond from orange a few weeks ago and i would like to know the same. The one thing i can tell you that it comes with rom 1.37 WWE and not the orange version which I thought was weird, the quick start book even shows the diamond with the orange rom. So if your the safe then you wont get a rom ruined by orange
Excellent, I hope the Diamond I receive is the same. I hate Orange extensions!
check out http://www.modmydiamond.info
Very useful site.
Thank you! Seems like a useful site...
Can anyone suggest what ROM to go for or a guide that details/reviews ROMS?
Thanks,
S
read , read & then read some more.
there are way too many ROMS to recommend.
workout what you wnat from a ROM then go find it.
i now this attitude sounds a bit tough but in the end you will gain invaluable knowledge about your phone along the way

I have to agree!
I was once a newb to WinMob (only about a month ago) and I hadn't a clue... I read, read and read and now I up updating roms, radios and installing apps like a good thing!
My own personal preference for a ROM is SwiftBL 5.6 - its super slick and includes loads of apps like GSen, Advanced Config, etc.... very nice app! You'll find it in the ROMs secion!
Enjor your phone!
DG
right o
if you go to the official HTC site you will get a download to the newest official htc rom 1.93 i think which will improve the phone speed no end - it is also easy to install (follow instructions on site). just make sure you backup everything first!
trust me it turned my phone from unusable to a godsend! and its official rom
Thanks for the replies. I will attempt reading the wealth of info available on this site, but i'm swept off my feet with work at the moment. So any concise info from you guys will really help me to get my diamond running well ASAP during this busy time. I have however read the guides on how to install the ROM at least and will get stuck in properly when things calm down.
Would you say that the latest official HTC ROM is faster than swift 6.0?
Thanks again,
S.

But you cannot download from HTC if you have an operator supplied device.
Oh! Damn. Oh well, I guess it's gonna have to be Swift or another ROM then...

20757.1.4.0
Just a question: why don't you just put all roms in one topic instead of making new topics for different languages? It makes it easier for us to keep following the topics posted.
1. This is the ROM that I have running, if something goes wrong with my phone (software wise and hard reset doesn't work) would I be able to fix it using this ROM without having to use HSPL etc?
2. Can I upgrade to another shipped ROM without HSPL, ie 1.19xxxx?
Many thanks.

i can't find it anywhere....
Dimitris
thanks...........................
This post is very useful.Thank you very much for this link.But I think moderators should collect these custom ROMs and put them together,finally.
Every single ROM has its own thread.I think this is complicated,both for users who want to download and for users who want to upload.Also it is very confusing,to search the entire forum just to find a specific ROM.
Anyway,thanks a lot dear friend.
Best regards
Alexander.

What is the diff. bet. ROM biulds.?
Gday,
i have flashed my HD with this rom, but I think it is labelled wrong.
It seems this ROM is UK Orange Rom as several times, the default website goes to HTC UK and several times I have had data errors stating this data connection can only work on Orange.
Are there the standard HTC roms around (which I thought this was).
Any other users seen this?

Based on my recent experience i would say you are just gonna have to search and search and try and fail. I'm still having issue porting newer XIP and SYS's but u just gotta stick with it. A WHOLE LOT OF SEARCHING TOO!!!! Everything you need is on here (i know ur gonna hate reading that) you just have to do a lot of searching and googling and trying. It really helps if u start from a stock ROM so u can see how its decompresses and its structure. We will help as much as we can.. Good Luck.

Did you see anything missing in the thread on the blackstone forum? I thought it was really thorough.
How to Cook Roms
Okay there's plenty of people ask about cooking roms.
There's a good thread started on the Blackstone forums to teach it. It'll work as well for X1 as for the HD.

I didn't see that when i was searching around but i saw that a lot of tutorials just don't work. I used a couple tutorials to port the XIP and SYS and none of them worked. I finally just dumped someone's ROM and tried to build packages and tried to see which SYS folders needed to be moved over. Although that is failing now lol... That is the only thing that i didn't see in the thread that you posted was how to port the XIP and SYS. Maybe i just missed it i kinda just glanced.

I posted this response to this same question over in the ROM development forum.
I too am a relatively new user to this board and a complete newbie to flashing the ROM of my Touch Viva. I wanted a newer more finger friendly ROM for my touchscreen Viva and getting the exact answer to how to flash the phone wasn't easy.
I read through different posts and basically pieced together the information that I use from many different posts. I too was concerned about "bricking" my phone and wanted to get it right.
I've flashed my phone with roughly a dozen different ROMs and have finally settled on one that I like and have also flashed a second Viva with an upgraded ROM also. So if you take your time and have a little patience you can do it.
I hope this helps.
Jagan2's guide
I found a great new post by Jagan2 on how to install/flash a custom ROM. You can find it here.
By the way, he is also the chef of a very good custom ROM called Evolution 2 which is what I'm currently using. I'm patiently waiting for his upcoming 2.5 version.
yea man im using evolution too its amazing rom for WM 6.5 ... give it a try and everything and all the steps u will find the in the fourm about hard spl and installing the rom too lemme know if u need help
